--Rebel Alliance--

The more the Empire tightened its grip on the people of the galaxy, the harder the Alliance to Restore the Republic fought. Born shortly after Palpatine's transformation of the Old Republic into the New Order, the Alliance started as little more than a rag-tag group of freedom fighters woefully under-equipped to challenge an enemy as mighty as the Galactic Empire. The continued injustices of the Empire, however, brought many into the Rebellion's fold.

As it grew, so to did its arsenal. To combat the Imperial starfleet, the Alliance's hotshot pilots made do with battle-worn yet effective craft like X-wing and Y-wing starfighters.

The Rebel Alliance scored a major victory over the Empire by using stolen technical plans to formulate an attack strategy capable of destroying the Empire's most fearsome weapon: the Death Star. During the next three years, the core group of Alliance commanders fled from base to base, constantly eluding the Empire's forces.

The Alliance eventually established a central base on the ice planet of Hoth. Imperial probes soon discovered the outpost, code-named Echo Base. The discovery precipitated the Battle of Hoth, wherein the High Command group was nearly destroyed. After the evacuation of the base, the Rebel leaders, including the Alliance's architect Mon Mothma, stayed with the ever-mobile and always-growing Alliance Fleet.

The joining of the Mon Calamari people into the Alliance bolstered the Rebellion's ranks, and brought badly needed capital ships into the fleet. Finally, about a year after the defeat at Hoth, the Rebellion was poised to make an all-out strike against the Empire. The opportunity came at the Battle of Endor. Despite it being an Imperial trap, the Rebels persevered. The conflict ended with the death of Emperor Palpatine, the destruction of the second Death Star, the scattering of the Imperial Fleet, and end of the New Order's long reign of oppression.

gay and straight alliance

An extra-cirricular refuge that brings together queer students and their straight friends to figure out how to get past homophobia and other difficulties in school. At the gay-straight alliance, one is safe from ridicule and persecution because of ignorant and closed-minded people.
At the gay and straight alliance, many plans were made to raise gay awareness and tolerance at the upcoming Day of Silence.

new alliance academy

A "school" where you have absolutely no freedom. A place where the school is literally shaped like a box and is smaller than CVS. A place where the principle acts like he's on crack. A place where you will be so glad when you finally leave.

However, this is also a place where you meet amazing new friends which you will never forget. The only good part about this "school" are the fellow students you meet.
If someone ever tells you that you should check out a school named new alliance academy, run as far as you possibly can.

futon alliance

A close association of video game players, assembled on a futon (or other seating device), formed to advance common interests by playing as team. Members of a futon alliance are loyal and trusting of each other; they will not act against other members of the alliance. Failure to act in accordance with terms of the futon alliance will result in a player being rejected from the coalition and henceforth being known as a futon asshole.
Rebecca, you better find Molly and destroy her player or else we will lose and you will no longer be a part of this futon alliance!
